And in this thumbnail, GothamChess made the brilliant in his mouth.

Stockfish will give brilliant moves for being able to see a rook sacrifice. Since White refused to ever take it, every move while it was in danger that didn't save it was considered "brilliant" because they are all rook sacrifices. Notice when the queens were traded and it wasnt a brilliant move, that was because the threat level on the queen was higher than the rook sacrifice so it wasn't a sacrifice at that moment (but would soon be again).

I think the initial move to B3 and the idea was brilliant, it seems like most of the subsequent brilliant moves were just because they didn't move the rook, because the obvious move is to get the rook out of the way of the bishop. Can't see how a 1000 rated player saw all this though without using an engine.

Yep. I think rook to b3 may be the inverse equivalent of the unrectified blunder that dings all your subsequent moves as being blunders until such time the initial offending blunder is finally addressed. Such situations are in need of being managed differently by the software. I'm not clear what solution might resolve this. And it will require some subtle parsing to make it fair. But this doesn't pass the smell test for most of the "brilliant" moves in this game.

Not only did this mad lad get more brilliant move than we ever will, we got them in a spam of 3 minutes

I would love to see an explanation for the Auxiliary idea and negative calculation removal in Levy's new book

You had to see D4 coming a couple moves beforehand, obviously the reason he moved the bishop and was going for a discovered attack by moving the pawn. It also defended two pawns in the meantime, not that they were under attack at that moment..

Levy is so humble! We are proud of you!

I think this was a staged game for views too, it looks quite fake I mean they played perfect theory and the 700 elo player made just 1 inaccuracy that allowed this whole brilliant sequence to unfold.
